This came out of nowhere, but just like with his last tape, it was a pleasant surprise. If you missed out on the FutureStreets/DrugSounds tape, you’re a sucker. Hit the jump for the track list + download link.

I go to the local Swap Meet…cats are selling their whole CD collections like it’s nothing now, $1 or $2 for CD’s in the case and everything. I go down with like $50 and come home with 30-40 CD’s with artwork and all that. It’s a come up everytime.

Economic times call for economic measures, you like the artist buy the work after you download. If you dont like that artist enough, or see your money being put forth to more things of use, then do you. But make it out to shows, or suppost any other way you can.

I’m not convinced I could listen to that voice for a whole album & wanted to check it out.

It took me some spins to get used to that shit…but the Unseen LP is one of the most zoned out, stoner classic albums I’ve ever listened to. The beats on that are fucking crazy. A co-worker kept that on blast like 6 years ago, at first I was like “what the fuck is this shit?!?!”. But after 4-5 spins, that album became some epic shit to me. Def gotta play that shit front to back and zone out to it, only way you’ll enjoy it.

Back in the day I used to buy mad albums, including some shits that were subpar. Nowadays, i’ll only buy an album I deem as a classic or close to a classic.
^^

exactly,

Its power back to the people. Some people take advantage yeah, but now we can say… NO to shit like TI vs TIP.

lol. Shit that had a poppin single but was ass cheeks all the way through.

I swear that album almost made me never check for TI again. He’s lucky paper trail was so strong. Honestly I wish I wouldn’t have bought that though too. I only checked it once. even though it was good.

Yo I’ll def peep cause I like the myspace joints, you gotta promote more.
^^
I know but I just dont like putting my joints out there like that, i know nowadays u gotta be all in niggas faces for them to listen but I feel like eventually ill get heard

^Old cd’s are still original price, and pac has like 7 double cd’s *straight face*

Makavel is still like 15 dollars. And I was gonna buy the onld no limt TRU cd, but that shit is a double disc, but it’s one cassette, so either I was gonna have to find a tape player or download that shit, it’s something about buying a album I already had when I can download it, word to cici sending me those 2 state p albums the other day

i’m sayin. lol. you’ve been on here longer than almost anyone, payin’ dues and can’t even get a mixtape posted. Dom Kennedy?? One dude named Donnis gets like one or two posts a week, Mazzi blogs for a year straight. smh.

I remember the best place to buy music was The Wherehouse…as long as you had your receipt you could return albums, even if you opened them up. So I would cop at least 2 albums every Tuesday, and if any of them sucked I could just exchange it for some shit the next Tuesday. Damn those were the days. I was young and in High School so I was pushing it [ll]…have like 6 receipts stapled to each other when I’d go to the register LMAO.

Its crazy because I got into Madlib from my weehead roommate from college, some white kid…had it on blast everywhere, niggas used to be mad because at House parties, he’d be blasting Lord Quas lmao

and whos gonna sustain them cOLD? if their “fans” are not prepared to…?

^ Rigz I think we are saying the same thing… When I say only artist about something… I mean the ones that are the voice of the people. Not only making songs about girls, material items, but also life, politics and the people. The machine is trying its hardest to withstand this climate… Niggas on 106 are going extra hard trying to poison the generation coming up. The radio’s doing its job too. The download age should be viewed as our friend… any person looking to make change in a positive direction, shouldnt care about being compensated. The ones that are clamoring for $$ are devils and mean no good.

yeah beacause the shit I hear that he features Quas on has been ill, but I could see it getting annoying.

^yeah I know, but I can’t complain, I just go harder (pause) and eventually i’ll get heard. Eskay even said I got some spit, but wont even give me a nah lite post. He said come at him with a mixtape, I did that, and still no post.

It seems like a lot of the albums I was planning on copping this year have turned out to be lackluster, 1.e. The last Kiss, Slaughterhouse. So, I have just downloaded the tracks I like. Hopefuly, Street Hop, Distant Relatives, and Till The Casket Drops don’t fall into that category, but I can’t be too optimistic with the way shit is going.

Yeah, but I aint talking about those artists. At all.

Im talking about the “fans” of Legitimate artists not supporting the shit they deem as “the realest”, then complaing when those said artists are on 106 & Park all day

Im just saying buy the ill shit, or you have no right to complain when it gets overlooked. Because in essence, you’re the one doing the overlooking

^^
niggas are devils for wanting to make a living off what they put their blood sweat and tears in?!?

And ur still kind of missing rigz point. If cats actually supported those artists that “speak for the people”, 106 and park wouldn’t be filled with nonsense. Money talks, if a concious artists fans buy his shit, the labels/machine gets behind it for no other reason than the bottom line.

^ I’m sayin fuck the record labels all together. and I do get rigz point. What will get purchased will get purchased. Meaning all the other shit doesnt even matter. If niggas dont support your shit, it means they’re not feeling it enough. And I aint just talking about the average joe that says ” this shit is dope”. Dope last but so long then it wears off… Im talking about shit so moving its life altering. Some of these so called artist need to step their game up.

LMAO at people still talking about buying compact discs and scared that “hip-hop” is dying if you don’t…..the “cd” is history and white people don’t buy cd’s…white hippies download all the time and they started the trend. The cd is dead..

if you can get it for free why pay?…Music aint the only thing people bootleg or download, what about the movie or porn industry?…I can go to a site and watch a movie thats out in the theaters..

its called technology people, and please get over it. People get toooo emotional about music.

**The movie industry is still surviving, because, unless you have a Neverland Ranch-style movie theatre, there’s no way to duplicate the commercail moviegoing experience; plus, sometimes movies are best viewed with a crowd, so you can participate in the reactions (no chemistry), and such–kinda like a baseball game…IMO, baseball is boring on TV, but fun in the stands….the listening experience of a downloaded album is exactly the same as listening to a purchased CD, maybe even better, because then, you have money left over to go watch a movie…

Dawg, don’t rationalize for stealing music..it makes you sound like a sucker. You take the music cause you don’t want to pay. Simple as that. Fuck how much work and labor your fav artists had to put into it. We make our own decisions and live by that code. However, when RIAA or MPAA snatch your ass up one day and don’t won’t to appeal that $500,000 levy…. I don’t want to see your ass on the news crying. ” The baby pressed “download”….I didn’t know”.
